I have 2 German shepherds, they are siblings from the same litter. I got them when they were 8 weeks old and we are one happy family. They are going to be 4 yrs old in November. They are friendly to strangers to a point, don’t really know how they would react to a stranger if I weren’t around. There is one problem with them, they are so bonded to me they won’t do anything unless I am with them. They will go out in the yard as long as they can see me but if I walk out of sight they are at the door looking for me.
Junior weighs 105 and his sister Libby weighs 70 but she rules the roost. They are my pride and joy.
“they are so bonded to me they won’t do anything unless I am with them.”
LOL... mine is the same way. He will sometimes go out a rest in the courtyard, but he continually comes back in to check on me.... that can be as many as a dozen times in an hour.
He never misses a day to make me smile.
